Just out of curiosity, I decided to see how many AW storefronts have items listed with them. On the day of the fee implementation, there were about 7500, one week later, about 4600, today, there were 3600, this is out of 8500-ish storefronts.

Mind you, I know this is unscientific at best, but it is an indicator of how AW listings are doing. I'm guessing that half of the former AW users stopped listing through them?

I know I did!

It will get worse before it gets better.

They brought it on themselves. Now the get to reap the benefits.

"I'm guessing that half of the former AW users stopped listing through them?"

So what? The remaining half is paying, and that's a lot more than ever paid before.

You're just whining.

I'm guessing that they are making a killing on the hundreds of 1-3 item store fronts.

Um, and I'm whining HOW? I thought I was just making an observation... I can usually tell when I'm whining about something.

But I do agree that they are making a lot more than they did before. All we can do now is wait and see what they do with it.

Why should we wait and see what AW is going to do with the money it makes from charging for the service it provides.

What right do we have to know what they are going to do with any profit they make. We don't have to tell each other how we spend our profit, so we should not expect them to tell or show us what they spend there's on.

They are providing a service and those who choose to use it are paying for the service they are receiving.
